“We were prepared for a hard transition for her,” Paige recalled. “Her other family was prepping her. We made a new room for her with pink everything, fit for a princess – we wanted her to feel safe and loved. We thought it would be so hard for her—thought she would struggle.”

12. Asking Questions

Even though they didn’t expect it, Ivey began to constantly ask Paige and Daniel if she could call them “mom and dad.” She would even ask “if she could stay forever.” However, it wasn’t so easy for Paige and Daniel to just adopt the three siblings. There was a lot of obstacles standing in their way.
